There's also The Duchess, although costume designer Michael O'Connor (Last King of Scotland, Miss Pettigrews) doesn't have Sandy Powell's pedigree.

Well, on this occasion, you probably have the right do so. I have to admit that the only reason I predicted Golden Age was because I read your comments on it. I would have gone with Sweeney Todd otherwise.

Elizabeth was my second choice, Damien, but I think Sweeney emerged more for me as a potential winner because of the Costume Designers Guild. But, somehow I forgot to change it at my Oscar.com predictions, weird.

I really am loathe to say I Told You So, but this one was to me a complete no-brainer from the day the nominations were announced. I never understood why there was even any discussion here on this category.
